Chase Elliott, the 18-year-old son of NASCAR great Bill Elliott, will go for a third consecutive NASCAR Nationwide Series win Friday night, in the ToyotaCare 250 at Richmond (7 p.m. ET on ESPNews). But don’t think Awesome Bill is an awesome coach. Mainly, he’s a super supportive father.
“He’s always kind of given me space to figure things out on my own, and any information he gives me, it’s just kind of there for reference,” the younger Elliott said. “It’s not ever forced upon. I think he kind of lets me figure [things] out as we go.”
It’s an approach that appears to working, to say the least.
